    When you want to discuss what I actually said I'll respond but I won't play your game where you segue into an entirely different subject.

    I'm fine with that but I would like it to be murder to abort a healthy baby from a healthy mother after the first trimester

    Your DEFEAT acknowledged

    Oh, quit making EXCUSES for not being able to answer those INCONVENIENT questions (I thought Anti-Choicers liked inconvenience)
    FoxHastings said:
    Did you want women who do that given life sentences or be executed ? There are only two choices, which is it????

    C'mon, step up to the plate and deliver, death or a life sentence ?



    How do you prove a woman had an abortion?






    THE QUESTIONS NO ANTI-CHOICER HAS EVER ANSWERED:

    For murder to be charged you either need a body or a person missing. You have neither in an abortion.

    What "evidence" ? Your say so ? Hilarious!

    How do you even "suspect" an abortion?


    How do you prove it wasn't a miscarriage?


    Even if your little dream came true and women were turned into criminals do you know what many millions of cases would do to our court system?







    :roflol: I KNEW those questions would stump you and you'd segue off onto something else.

    We were discussing abortions, not late term abortions which are over 23 weeks NOT 12 weeks....


    Now, try to answer the questions if a woman has an abortion after 12 weeks and before 23 weeks....you STILL won't be able to :)

    How often does that happen? Second trimester abortions are either because of lack of access (and the saddest part is that is that many of the restrictions put in place around abortion have not reduced the number but have delayed them to increase the later abortions

    Why is that important? If it happens once it's once to often and a murder charge is appropriate

    How do you suspect/investigate/prosecute a murder when there was no body and no person ever existed ?

    Abortion is legal till 23 weeks.



    I see post 102 still has you stumped into silence.

    Second trimester, which are from 12 to 23 weeks are rare nut there has been an attempt to apply the feticide laws to one case, which was a stillbirth

    I don't understand the resistance to make a law saying late term abortion without due cause is murder. What am I missing here? It's murder if someone else kills the baby in the womb so why not if the mother does.

    What they really believe is that the woman has a special right to kill.

    My feeling is they think it's the slippery slope argument. Once a mother can be charged with murder for killing a baby in her womb they fear all abortion will suddenly be up for murder charges.

    I wonder if they believe a woman can give up her rights to abortion by signing a prior contract?

    Perhaps with the biological father, who only agrees to have a baby with her if she signs a contract not to abort it, or perhaps by another infertile couple who have hired her to be a surrogate and couldn't stand the thought of their unborn child being aborted.

    I doubt it. They seem to think the mother becomes God himself until the moment of birth

    It's Anti-Choicers who think they're "god"....they think they determine what other people should do with their bodies....but if someone tried to tell them they must give up a kidney or must give blood they would object.

    No, women do not have a "special " right. They have the same right you have...they have the right to their own body and , like you, do not have to sustain the life of another without consent.

    How desperate must a woman be to get an abortion in the first place?

    How desperate must she be to risk her life to end the pregnancy?

    [​IMG]

    We KNOW that if abortion is legislated against then women die in or are maimed in backyard abortion "clinics" often run by syndicated crime groups. Where there is no state oversight the most grizzly horrific situations occur. Gosnell was a prime example. He paid people to look the other way while he butchered women

    Keep it legal and you HAVE a degree of control

    You keep dodging my question with straw man answers. I didn't say make all abortion illegal I said make aborting a late term baby without due cause carry a murder charge. Try to focus.

    And for those times when it is medically necessary? Third trimester abortions are rare and the overwhelming reason for them is foetal abnormality, usually incompatible with life but sometimes for compassion such as cases of osteogenesis imperfecta where the baby will face a lifetime of broken bones

    Once again try to focus and quit dodging the question.
    On the rare occasion when a mother has an illegal late term abortion without good medical cause why not call it what it is which is murder. Why do you oppose this?

    Actually I'm dodging you. Sorry but I just find your personality too annoying to deal with. IRL I just avoid people like you and I do the same in here. Have a nice day.

    Because it does not happen

    There is not a lot of research but what there is points to the fact that 98% are for foetal abnormality. Women do not go through 8 months of pregnancy only to decide at the last meant that they did not want to be pregnant in the first place

    That 2%? Scared usually very young girls who if they birth will dump the baby. Yes I am counting in the terrified teen who often is pregnant to her mother's boyfriend

    Funny how you contradict your excuse to not address the question put to you.
